Step
into the Octagon™ with the most realistic take on fighting ever
achieved.
Powered by EA SPORTS IGNITE technology, every fighter, strike, takedown
and
submission will make you feel the fight.

·MMAi
– A
mixed martial artist’s mind is as important as his heart. Every
licensed
fighter in the game will have changing goals and fight plans, based on
their
real-life tendencies and each fight situation. Stop their Plan A, and
they will
adapt to Plan B or C. Down on the scorecards, look for the AI to end
the fight
with a knockout or a submission. A smarter opponent equals a more
challenging
and unpredictable fight.

·Full
Body Deformation – Until now,
simulation of physical contact between fighters was limited
to bodies that barely made contact with each other; as a result, they
looked
and behaved like action figures made of plastic rather than elite
athletes. The
team that revolutionized sports by bringing authentic physics to the
Fight
Night franchise changes the game again with an all-new, full-body
deformation
system that moves and displaces the fighter’s flesh in real time. For
the first
time, the strength of every submission and power of every strike will
truly
make an impression.

·Real-Time
Exertion – A UFC bout is one of
the most physically demanding sports on the planet
requiring mixed martial artists to give it their all with every
movement. Real-Time
Exertion brings each moment of that action to life in your gameplay
experience. Through real-time vein popping, skin discoloration, muscle
flex, as
well as signs of fatigue setting in through the course of each round,
you will
witness the effort it takes to be one of the best fighters in the world.

·Fighter
Likeness and Facial Animations – EA
SPORTS UFC will set a new bar for character
likeness and emotion in gaming. Every single licensed fighter in the
game has
been created from high resolution 3D head and body scans to deliver
revolutionary character likeness and authenticity. Powered by EA SPORTS
IGNITE,
new facial animation technology delivers more expression, emotion and
will
communicate greater sense of awareness and intelligence in the Octagon.

·Precision Movement – MMA is a sport of inches,
where
every step counts and every movement matters. Powered by EA
SPORTS
IGNITE, the Precision Movement locomotion system grounds the
fighters,
eliminating unrealistic slipping and sliding across the canvas. More
realistic
physics-driven movement delivers morerealistic action as the
overall
transfer of energy from the ground up delivers more impactful and
believable
strikes and takedowns.

·Dynamic
Striking – A mixed martial
artist uses the environment to his advantage and for the
first time in a UFC game, you can too. A dynamic environment allows you
to pull
off jaw-dropping moves using the Octagon, including roundhouse kicks,
superman
punches and much more. Combine those abilities with the best striking
technology in the industry and that one perfect strike could change the
fight.

·Strategic
Submission Battles – To own the
belt, you have to be dominant on
your feet and on the mat. EA SPORTS UFC re-invents the ground
game to
create a battle for position and control that captures the strategy of
a
submission battle. Like the real sport, in EA SPORTS UFC fighters will
work
through multiple stages as they work to advance or escape from a
fight-ending
submission.

·Real
Damage – Every
fighter knows that one good shot can ruin your day. EA SPORTS UFC
introduces a non-linear damage system which can result in big damage
coming
from a single strike. The system produces a greater variety of cuts and
contusions that is true-to-life and has never been possible in a
simulation
fighting game.
